LONDON (Reuters) - Diego Costa's return to La Liga side Atletico Madrid from Jan. 1 2018 has been finialised, Premier League champions Chelsea said in a statement on Tuesday. "Diego Costa has today agreed terms for his transfer to Atletico Madrid, which will take effect on 1 January 2018," Chelsea said in a statement. "I'm very happy to return home," Costa said in a statement on Atletico's official website. "Thank you to the whole club for making this move forward, I'm very grateful to everyone." Atletico are in the same Champions League group as Chelsea but their two clashes will both be before Costa is eligible to continue his career with the Spanish club.
